ActionScript 2.0 :: Define A Symbol Already On Stage

Feb 21, 2007

I am using an opensource spectrum analyzer to try to learn, but I would like to start by making the stage symbol pulse in the same fashion.NOTE that I have inserted the below text at the bottom of the .as file so that you can see how it is not referencing.I want to control a movie with the instance name mc_ball that I already have on stage.If I reference it in the .as file via _root.mc_ball.scaleX or whatever I need to do, it says it is not defined...obviously.So what do I need to do, to define a movie ALREADY created?I was informed on a different forum that _root is no longer valid, so I am not sure where to go from here. Does anyone know of a tutorial that I could learn about this feature of referencing library/stage symbols?

Flash :: Editing Symbol Position Or Size Not Always Accurate?

Nov 19, 2010

If I click on a symbol, go to the properties tab, click on the width textbox, type in 1000, hit enter, it then reports the width being 999.95. That's .05 pixels off from what I wanted.

I have snap to objects disabled. The symbol in question is a 1000x500 linear gradient rotated 90 degrees alone in it's own layer in a movie clip.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Updating Slider Thumb Position As Movie Clip Symbol Plays?

Feb 9, 2012

I would like to know if there is a way to update the position of the thumb on the Slider component when a movie clip plays. Currently I have a movie clip symbol on my stage with the instance name ShapeMC. It has about 10 frames or animation and two actions. the first frame has a stop action as does the last frame. The actions are on their own layer, separate from the actual animation. I also have the slider component in my library, but it is only there so I can reference it through AS3. My AS3 instantiates a variable of type Slider. I then define the properties, like the width, hieght, thumb size, minimum, maximum, as well as enabling livedragging. I did this so the user can drag the slider and move through the Movie Clip symbol. I added a button that allows the user to click it and autoplay the Movie Clip symbol (ShapeMC). All that works. What I would like to do is when I hit the play button, I would like to see the thumb on the slider move along the slider as the Movie Clip symbol (ShapeMC) plays. So if the Movie Clip symbol reaches frame 5, the slider thumb show be seen as being half way through the tread. I tried putting the currentFrame into the .value property of the slider, but that didn't do anything. No errors, but it didn't move the thumb at all.

Flash :: Change Visibility Of Symbol Instance From Inside Another Symbol's Script

Nov 22, 2011

I have a project in Flash Professional CS5 and ActionScript 3.

I have a movieclip symbol (referred herein as "background" with scripts on various keyframes inside of that symbol. I need to hide or show another symbol (referred herein as "object") sharing a stage with "background".

To put it another way, I need "object" to be hidden when "background" reaches a certain internal keyframe. However, as "object" and "background" are both children of the same stage, how do I do this?
